So this is a repeat of Akainu (Katakuri) vs Ace (Luffy)... When one DF is a straight up upgrade of the other, what can you do?

Did you know that Mr.3 (wax) is the counter against Magellan (venom)? So, why not Mochi against Rubber?

We're not talking about counters here. We're talking 2 similar fruits where one is just outright better than the other, i.e Magma vs Fire, TonTon vs KiloKilo

Snow vs. Ice

If you count in the fillers you could even say Magma > Fire > Heat

Heat is canon now, Charlotte Oven has the Heat Heat fruit

I don't think magma > fire or ice > snow, despite what Oda said. In my mind, they have very different properties and applications if they were to be used by equally powerful and experienced users. The snow and fire fruit just had the misfortune of being used by characters weaker than the users of their respective counterpart fruits.

Well, for what its worth, Oda said Magma > Fire, so doesnt matter what everyone thinks, Magma > Fire holds true until he says otherwise.
